"Pedestrian" generally implies some random person out walking around, but:

Yeah that's a little odd of a wording. The plane didn't just "hit someone" it also had an engine catch fire, which strongly, strongly implies that this person was sucked through the engine.
You would kind of have to try to run out onto the runway and leap into a running jet engine, so it seems reasonably fair to me to call this a suicide.

Not everybody has a schedule. Mine is essentially "eat when hungry, sleep when tired", and my sleep patterns more closely follow a 26-hour day than a 24-hour day.
This is fascinating, please do tell more about it! How does it affect your mental health? How do you deal with times day and night are flipped? How does it affect your social life?
That it should in some way affect my mental health has never once occurred to me. If anything, i assume that living on one's body's own natural schedule would be optimal in terms of related effects on mental health.
> How do you deal with times day and night are flipped?
When there's not something pressing me into a schedule, e.g. a job, i kind of "circle around" to a conventional schedule every few weeks. All things considered, i prefer the "swapped" times because it's quieter at night. e.g. less traffic driving by, fewer neighbors making various noises, and no DHL/UPS/DPD deliveries for the neighbors being dropped off here because the neighbors aren't home (whereas i am almost always at home and both the neighbors and the local delivery folks know it).
i'm a retiree so, with the exception of shopping and rare appointments, the night/day or weekend/weekend[^1] are not generally distinctions which affect me, and it's never bothered me in the slightest to not have a fixed schedule. On the contrary, a fixed schedule somewhat bums me out long-term, presumably because it does not match my biological clock.
> How does it affect your social life?
My social life is (by preference and choice) comprised solely of (A) my FOSS work, and there's no clock associated with any of that, and (B) my wife. Both my and my wife's biological families are all on another continent, so we've no family obligations which require physical presence. When i'm not FOSS'ing, we play a lot of board games.
[^1]: stores are closed on Sundays and all public holidays in Germany. More than once i've gone to the store, only to discover it's closed due to a holiday i've overlooked (like, most recently, May 1st).
> Compare that to SQLite's 1.2mb of wasm and glue code
The current trunk is actually 1.7mb in its canonical unminified form (which includes very nearly as much docs as JS code), split almost evenly between the WASM and JS pieces :/. Edit: it is 1.2mb in minified form, though.
FWIW, i'll disagree. i was a _huge_ PHP fan from around 1999 until 2010, but two things finally killed it for me:
1) It's apparently impossible to cleanly structure large projects with PHP. i've been a part of many such projects across a large handful of teams, and every one of them eventually became a complete mess, structurally speaking, no matter how conscientious the developers were. Java, for example, forces a directory structure onto developers. PHP is more C-like in that regard - "do whatever you want" - and i've yet to see that end well for older/larger projects.
2) Breaking age-old working features with new releases, like when they removed split or join or implode or explode (two of the four, but i don't recall which). When they did that, and my decade-old website suddenly stopped working, i lost all motivation to continue maintaining sites in PHP. Dropped it that very day (for my personal sites) and have not looked back. i still had to use it in commercial projects off and on through 2014, and each one only help cement point #1 for me.
That arguably belongs in the commit messages or, in some cases, in code comments.
> or what I was planning next.
That arguably belongs in ./TODO or, in some cases, code comments.
Edit: TODOs in code comments obviously don't have a natural ordering, but i frequently look at diffs to help figure that part out, as they clearly mark the new/recent TODOs.
> Is there anything that actually works, or do you just accept the tax?
There will always be a tax for context switching - even brief interruptions during concentrated work often require longer than the interruption to get back into the work (that's a well-studied phenomenon, actually). There is no avoiding that unless, perhaps, one has eidetic memory (in which case the cost is _presumably_ low enough to be considered negligible (but perhaps someone with eidetic memory can enlighten us on that)).
> How long does it realistically take you to resume a project after 3+ days?
That depends entirely on the project and its complexity/scope. It might be 5 minutes, it might be half a day. i'll admit that i sometimes (okay, okay: often!) avoid going back to something i'd _like_ to work on because i know in advance that this tax is likely to be paid by an inordinately large portion of my current energy levels, leaving little for the actual work. Frequently, though, when _finally_ getting back, i discover that the tax is less than anticipated. Maybe that's an age/experience thing, though - refamiliarizing myself with older code seems to come more easily to me with age, for reasons beyond my ken.
FYI, this doesn't appear to work on macOS, unless I'm lucky enough that Chrome has never installed anything related to this on my machine. I don't even have a ~/.config/google-chrome directory; it's possible Google is using some Apple-alternative to that standard.
Done! Edit: nevermind - i've deleted it. The community guidelines request/require that responses actually attempt to answer the question (how to block all AI usage), which this response does not address.
> You only download it when some JS requests it for the first time, most people will never have it.
i certainly never activated it willfully. i use Chrome only as a fallback testing platform for web dev - a handful of times per month - yet both Chrome Stable and Chrome Unstable had installed this 4GB monstrosity in my home dir. 8GB of junk i'd never used. Both have since been uninstalled and replaced with Chromium.
